THE CONTRACTS AWARDED

Tracey Brothers of Waterbury the l. ovv- est Bidders on the AImshouse. Do l Not Get the Contract New Haven l Builders to Erect the RufId1ng-Geo | M. Grant to do the Mason Work For $1O5,64O-The other Awards.
 The citizens committee and the board of selectmen met in the town agents office at four o'clock yesterday afternoon to award the contracts for building the new almshouse. Judge Luzon B. Morris presided. Mir. Mon sen, of Waterbury, made some statements which were of a very complimel tary and flattering nature to the firm of Tracey Brothers, of Waterbury, the lowest bidders by $1 TOO. He spoke of the good work done by the firm and their sub-contractor, MT. Gaffney, and said all the firm asked for was fair play. He believed the firm could give good satisfaction and would furnish all desirable bonds.
 The board went into executive session, re- maining behind closed doors until after half past five. It was ascertained after the meeting that Tracey Brothers did not get the contract in spite of the fact that they were the lowest bidders. The vote on giving it to Tracey Brothers was as follows:
 Yeas-Seiectmen Beecher and White; Messrs. Morris, Futile and H. c. White.
 Nays-Seiectmen Reynolds, Brown, Feld- man, Klenke, Cooper and Messrs. Welch, Dawson, Stoddard and Chat6eld.
 The contracts were then awarded to New Haveners as follows:

A Heavy Production of Flour.

MINNEAPOLIS, July 6.-The Northwestern Miller says: The mills last week turned out the most flour since April. There was 8 big gain over the previous week. The product for the week ending July was 13s, 400 bar rels, averaging 23,23s barrels daily, against 121, 800 barrels the corresponding time in 1ss6 The same seventeen mills are running this week, but are being crowded more and producing 23,000 barrels daily. The majority closed down the 4th, and though some extra time will be got in, this weeks work will hardly equal last week. The flour market is irregular with moderate demand. Large lines have been sold by one or more firms within a few days, New England being lib eral purchaser. Patents are much easier to dispose of than formerly, this grade forming a considerable item in exnorts.

NEW TREATMENT FOR LOcKJAw.

NEW TREATMENT FOR LOCKJAW The Nerves From the FooB to the Brain Drawn Downward to Coun-
 teract the Effect of the Disease.
 CHICAGO, July 6.-John Kelleher ran 8
 rusty nail into his foot about an inch behind his big toe on May 20. He washed the wound out with cold water, tied piece of cotton over it, and in day the foot was well again, the nail having just punctured the skin. Yes terday morning he complained of sore throat. When the physician asked him to open his mouth, it was discovered that the jaws refused to perform their functions. Another physician was called in, and at once pro- nounced the malady a typical form ot traumatic 1ockjaw. An hour later the tetan- ic grin set in, and it became apparent that extreme measures had to be resorted to. A consultation resulted in the operation below described: MT. Kelleher was put under the influence of ether. The sponge had been barely applied to his nostrils when the initial tetanic convulsion displayed itself. He jumped from the operating slab and made 8 mad rush for the window. His jaws were set, his eyes protruded, and he fought with frenzied strength
  four men could hardly overcome. Again he was given the anesthetic, this time with bet ter effect An incision four inches long and three inches deep was made an inch and a half behind the hip bone. The sciatic nerve was then exposed. Here a strong metallic sound was passed beneath the nerve, and it was stretched downward from the spinal cord with pressure of 175 pounds. The gash was then dressed with iodoform and antiseptics and sewed up. An incision three inches long was next made in the groin, the knife cutting downward past the femoral artery until the crural nerve was exposed. Here the sound was again used and the nerve drawn downward from the spinal cord with pressure of fifty pounds.
 This idea of treatment of lockjaw is new one and was first successfully attempted in the European medical colleges about six months ago. and the case of Kelleher is prob- ably the first effort in the West. It was the left foot which was injured. The two nerves treated are those supplying locomotion and sensation from the nerve center to the seat of the wound. The stretching was done to destroy the nerve current, which conducted the sensations from the scar in the left foot produced by the nail to the base of the brain, and also to prevent the conveyance of the irritation from the pysemic foot to the brain The case is being watched with great interest by the medical profession of Chicapo

JURY FIXING AT CHICAGO.

The Prosecution Causes a Sensation
 In the County COmmissioners'
 cases.
 CHICAGO, July 6.-Rumors that the jury in the county commissioners cases had been fixed in the interest of the defendants brought the trial to stand still to-day. Court was adjourned for several hours to give the States attorney time to get at the bottom of the matter. The result was a formal charge filed by him that four men had been slipped into the jury box who should never have been admitted. George s. Tate, o. W. Ostrander, William Parks and Daniel Cudehee compose the quartettee. Tate is a personal friend of one of the defendants, Warden Varnell, the two being for 8 long time members of the same Masonic lodge. The objection to Ostrander aud Parks is that they with Tate were summoned by BailiH McGill at the instance of persons interested in an acquittal. Cudehee is an alien, it is claimed and the States attorney asks that he with another juror and Tate, Ostrander and Parks, the last batch of jurors sworn, be re- arraigned in order that some of them may be challenged. Judge Jamieson postponed action until tomorrow.
